Basically I hear a lot of mixed reviews about the glassy screens.
It seems to me that people at first love them because of the vibrant and clear colours, but then after some practical use and take them to different locations they begin to get annoyed by the reflections, and maybe even get eye strain and/or headaches.
Basically I want to hear from people who have had their glassy screened mac notebooks for at LEAST 2 weeks (of significant usage, preferably a month) and see if you have gotten used to it.
I hear other people that use it for a day and return it immediatly due to this, others use it for months and then get buyers remorse, etc...
The fact is that I could really use a laptop right now and I don't want to buy anything other than a mac. Spending $2000+ dollars on a laptop that will be obsolete in a year or two is ridiculous and the 17" MPB is way too expensive. I would like to buy the 13" model, but obviously i'll be stuck with a glassy screen. From my light usage in store it seems like once you get focused on a task (and as long as the screen is oriented towards your face) you don't notice the reflections as much.
